Im just collecting an Ork army for CP, do you remember what was being used?Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07200221171289452423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-697158010054505133.post-8030681246312042652010-02-27T09:18:55.764-08:002010-02-27T09:18:55.764-08:00I think it's awesome that even at 500 pts you&...I think it's awesome that even at 500 pts you're fielding almost double the number of models my Marines field at 750.<br /><br />One interesting thing about that is that it gives horde oriented armies a lot more flexibility for objective oriented missions.<br /><br />Poor Sentinel though. I played a Combat Patrol mission last night against a friend's IG and the Sentinel had a similar fate---stepped up to take a big shot, whiffed, and immediately got blown apart. At armor 10 and without serious mobility like a Landspeeder, I think they're probably tough to get into situations where they're useful without the opponent being easily able to take them down beforehand or in return.Joe Kopenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13629085901176090088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-697158010054505133.post-45321942232962725532010-02-26T23:17:36.797-08:002010-02-26T23:17:36.797-08:00No, they didnt have time to do that.

I was lucky enough to wipe out each wave as it came in, although the 3 flamers managed to get 10 of my men before i turned everything i had on them lol. The Horrors didnt really do much apart from look pink and get shot up.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07200221171289452423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-697158010054505133.post-3245888836929573172010-02-26T11:58:45.039-08:002010-02-26T11:58:45.039-08:00What was the Chaos force?What was the Chaos force?Derinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11806737356459915190noreply@blogger.com
